René Boyvin after Léonard Thiry. Jason and Medea standing before King Pelias, the Argonauts having reached Thessal. Plate 17 from Livre de la conqueste de la Toison d'Or. France, 1563. ---- René Boyvin after Léonard Thiry. Phryxus arrives in Colchis where King Aeetes offers him shelter. Plate 4 from Livre de la conqueste de la Toison d'Or. France, 1563. ---- Léonard Thiry designed this works as assistant to the Italian artist, Rosso Fiorentino, at the French royal palace of Fontainebleau. The most clebrated interior at Fontainebleau was the Galerie Francois I, named after the then king, which featured fresco paintings set into elaborate plaster frames. This black and white print translates this idea into a form which was both much more affordable and portable, and thus enabled the influence of Fontainebleau to travel right across Europe.
